Tandem coarctations of the thoracic and abdominal aorta with an intervening
segment of hypoplastic thoracic aorta were discovered unexpectedly in a
14-year-old boy brought to the emergency room for a displaced fracture of
the radius. After the fracture healed, the boy's potentially dangerous
anomalies were treated successfully with a unilateral axillofemoral
prosthetic graft. This has remained patent for 42 months, and the boy has
done well.
